We are, ourselves, at last, dependent.”

The tops of their ears were feathered, their hands were the claws of birds,
And, shaking the plumes of the grasses and the leaves of the mural glen,
The breathing came from those bodies, long warless, grown whiter than curds.”

That we can call these delicate creatures ours
And not their appetites!”
